On January 18, 1649, all the members of the security team, except for a few absences, finally regrouped, and in two days they were to set out to receive northern Taiwan.

Counting the time, those Dutch can run to the Taipei area, and if you scare them away again, it will be a little trouble for them to run to the Hirado Shokan on Dejima, Japan. Now is not the time for the traversers to make enemies everywhere.

In the original Jihua, two landing craft will also go with them, but the traversers discussed it, forget it, one Zishui is enough. When the time comes, climb the net rope and go ashore with an assault boat. Don't overestimate the combat effectiveness of the ancients at this time, whether he was Eastern or Western. The suspension of the two landing craft also saved a lot of diesel. Stay and defend the city of Geranza.

The security team members are basically gone, and the rest of the security work is taken over by the base militia. He Bin and Guo Huaiyi also went with them to receive the northern region of Taiwan, and they each brought more than 50 people. The weapons assigned to them were spears left by the Dutch, and they were issued to them when the Zichuan arrived in northern Taiwan.

For this reason, the security team also specially let them practice climbing the net rope for a while, but when they finished climbing for the first time, they were immediately driven out of the training ground by Captain Wu Jianqiang. Fuck, faster and better than the security guards can crawl!

Deputy Captain E Yuxi said sincerely: "They all ran over the boat, and the sailboat didn't all crawl around......

"Yes, that's true. But they are clearly no match for us on human liliang. Sun Yu, the captain of the second detachment, also added.

"You know, these people have been jumping around on Dutch merchant ships these days, like a bunch of monkeys. But they still can't manipulate it, so how much diesel can they save......" Captain Wu Jianqiang sighed.

In fact, everyone understands in their hearts that even if they can maneuver, they will not take their boats, which is different from using them as laborers, which is to give them their lives, which is too dangerous, so in other words.

The rest of the time, the whole security team went on the Purple Water, did adaptive training, and practiced the ideal military posture of Captain Wu Jianqiang, waiting for the future.

The security team used these Ziming people as laborers, and did not sacrifice the safety of the security team. They adjusted the guest rooms of the Purple Water, welded a few iron railings, separated the two rooms, and entered through different entrances.

If these Ming people whose family business is in Taiwan suddenly stop their family business, and suddenly learn to operate a modern passenger and cargo ship, and magically be able to kill nearly 150 heavily armed former soldiers, then there will still be a certain danger in this trip. There's no way, it's a waste to do such a small job as packing up the loot and then arranging for the crossing to be done.

The current performance of the Mingren workforce can be described as perfect.

This is by no means a golden finger for the traversers, thinking that their children and grandchildren can serve the Eight-Nation Alliance, Japanese imperialism, and various isms, and there is really no reason why they cannot serve the traversers.

As long as they can live, as long as they have a bite to eat, and as long as they can fight for a chance to get on top, this nation can endure anything.

Now the Ming labor force is doing well, especially in the Hongxing Industrial Zone, when the first batch of Ming labor from the Chiji agricultural base got ten horses of food stamps every day as promised, the second batch is pouring in like a tide, enough for the traversers to fully choose. There is no other reason, there is not much work in the fields of the Ming people. In this era, machine farming has exerted an incomparable effect, liberating a large number of short-term labor forces at once.

The traversers won the bet, and the investment in machine farming was worth it, as they had thought in advance, and its investment saved diesel fuel in the Red Star Industrial Zone. The crowd effect has played a huge role. Of course, there are less than a thousand people in the Red Star Industrial Zone. Through the renewal of the certificate, the travelers found that the qualified labor force is far less exaggerated than 4,000.

The 4,000 qualified laborers were estimated by the Dutch who slaughtered nearly 9,000 people during Guo Huaiyi's uprising in 1652. If it is simple repression, then it must be to kill an adult man, or maybe there is a healthy woman? Although the number of immigrants in the two years is also counted, there should be 4,000 qualified laborers.

But no, Hongxing Industrial Zone rejected a group of Ming laborers because they could not be counted as laborers, and they were obviously here to eat, most of them were old or disabled. Originally, according to Director Li Ziqiang's psychology, this was nothing, just a few meals. In the shijie on that side, which one doesn't bring a few dozen rubbing rice when the work is checked above?

And the Ming people can always do some work, such as moving bricks, such as helping to push carts.

Speaking of carts, I have to mention the two-wheeled carts of the traversers. In order to save tonnage and space, they only brought two wheels and steel axles, and replaced the rest with hardwood planks.

Can this be strong? Of course, it's not strong, but they can change it at any time! No matter how bad it is, change it again! In order to save space and tonnage, you can carry as many other items as you like, and the traversers are outrageously calculated.

Drive away those who rub rice. This is because the financial company is stuck, and when the food stamps were issued, Director Li Ziqiang found that even if he went to ask for food in person, he had to supply it according to the vouchers. The person in charge of the grain depot is still a person named Ye Chuang, with an expression of "stop teaching others to take advantage". So Director Li Ziqiang reluctantly coaxed away some people who seemed to be able to do some work. The people who came from the Chichi area didn't even give a meal, and asked the family to walk back, far from the same style as the car pick-up at the beginning. It's all forced.

The Akito laborers at the Akashi Agricultural Base also feel good about themselves. There are fewer horses, but they are close to home, and they don't have to live in tents like in the Red Star Industrial Zone.

Only the director of the estuary base, Song Shida, was lamenting, after you moved the network, I found out that even if I have been on the LAN, I also like it, no, it is really missed. His story is relatively long, and we'll get to that later.

Director Sun Defa took a job, which made him very indignant, and also made Andefu Jishu very indignant. The integration of their chemical department was ruthlessly delayed for another day, and it also affected the timing of the conversion of Anderford Jishu into temporary workers.

Dressed in a well-rounded security uniform, Director Sun Defa rode a three-wheeled motorcycle to the quarry to pick up the Anderford Jishu staff, and then drove to the original Dutch civilian residence.

Along the way, Andefu Jishu said lightly: "I said Sun Dong, I have done the ideological work of the Ming people in this way, and it will immediately bear fruit, is it appropriate to transfer me away?" ”

"I saw your post on the Internet, didn't everyone give it a good review?"

"Why do you want to transfer me away, why do you want to separate those Mingren temporary workers?"

"Sorry, you didn't look at the photo, now the noodles in Budai Town are still boiling salt, and it took Zheng Chenggong to call over that this side learned to dry salt. If you want to take over their ready-made salt works, you can dream of it. Let's start with the salt. ”

"It takes half a year to build a qualified salt plant, and it takes full use of modern equipment, and they give us a month, just kidding. Thankfully, we weren't asked to produce the output of a modern saltworks, or I'd rather wander somewhere else! ”

"Like really, now, going out alone is a death, do you believe it? Those Mingren temporary workers will at least lead the team to smash stones - not to use them separately, waste. ”

"Who knows, let them get it themselves. Anyway, the task is quantitative-you say, just a distance of more than 100 kilometers between the two sides of the strait, it is so difficult to learn how to dry salt? ”

"Didn't I say we'll go at our own pace, regardless of them—"

As they spoke, the two of them arrived at the church in the former civilian area.

It is a typical Dutch Christian church.

It never emphasizes its grandeur and grandeur, everything is based on practicality, not even the multicolored glass windows, let alone the organ. Until the 19th century, pipe organs were designed for each church individually and manufactured and assembled on site. The mercantile Dutch, of course, would not have spent a fortune for them to be shipped from Europe.

There are no religious frescoes in the hall, nothing but a pulpit and a few pews. This includes the priest's room, which is very distressing for the security team who receives the place.

A religion does not decay slowly, but has the function of self-improvement, and on the premise of not violating the main theme, all kinds of compromises occur, which really hurts the minds of the traversers. They had thought about religion and planned accordingly. We'll talk about that later.

On a calm morning, Director Sun Defa and Anderford Jishu pushed open the door of the church. At this time, the two pastors were leading the wounded and praying for something, but it was not their concern.

The sunlight shone into the church from behind them, imprinting their shadows into the church. The church was brighter, and one of the wounded was inattentive, and he peeked at the two men, and he saw that they had a light wheel on their bodies.

Director Sun Defa slowly walked towards the two pastors, not intentionally, but the footsteps echoed heavily in the church, like a hammer smashing into the hearts of the two pastors.

They unconsciously re-pray in their hearts what they had just prayed:

"I trust in God, and I will praise His word; I trust in God, and I will not be afraid. What can the flesh do to me? For God has not given us a heart of fear, but of a strong, loving, self-disciplined heart. So we can boldly say, 'The Lord is my helper, and I will not be afraid, but what can man do to me?' ’”

Director Sun Defa walked up to them, I don't know when he started, he felt much more relaxed, and began to taste the dividends that youth brought him: passion and ideals. There are others, not enough for outsiders either.

With his hands behind his back, his chest held out, he said with a full sense of anger:

"I have no intention of disturbing your devout religious ceremonies, but when you know that if thousands of lives are in your hands, it is more important than anything else. I want you to go to Tamsui and Keelung to persuade those who have fled for their lives to surrender and accept our judgment. We promise to judge you by the law you believe in......"

Pastor Farburgh stood up and met the piercing eyes of Director Sun Defa and said, "Let them surrender to your slaughter, or let them live in fear forever?" ”

"I think I've made it clear. However, your words suddenly reminded me of an Aesop fable......"

"Aesop's Fables? Where are you from? Pastor Daniel asked.

"Antarctica, Pastor Daniel Nee. It is said that on the way to Baghdad, the capital of Iraq, the plague messenger met a caravan, and the leader of the caravan asked curiously: Where are you going in such a hurry? The plague messenger said firmly: "I will go to Baghdad to take five thousand lives." A few days later, the plague messenger met the caravan from before, and the leader of the caravan shouted to it: "You lie, you have taken 5,000 lives, 50,000 lives!" The plague messenger insisted, "No, I will only take 5,000 lives." The rest was taken by the messengers of fear. You see, if you hadn't taken up swords and guns against us out of fear at that time, where would there be death later? ”

"You weishenme want to attack us for no reason?"

"For no reason? Oh my God," said Director Sun Defa in a gesture of exclamation with his hands outstretched, looking up, "God, about eight months ago, we kindly came to you to talk about the return of our territory and compensation, but what did you do with us?" You-you-yet-fire-us-us-cannons! Cause the death of our messenger...... It is you who let the olive branch of peace slip in our hands, and we have to take up the same sword and gun...... Luckily, we won. Now you get it? ”

Priest Farburg's face darkened, he knew about it, and the sailor who fired the cannon had approached him......
